00:00:00.000 When I look at the Democratic Party and their approval rating was higher pre, what do you want to call it, pre-Obama was higher.

00:00:09.120 And even let's just say during Obama as well was higher.

00:00:11.840 To where it's at today, I don't know if you've seen the rating or not, where they're at.

00:00:14.660 Have you seen that lately, what they've been reporting?

00:00:16.180 I didn't even know they did approval ratings for people who aren't in power.

00:00:19.060 Oh, no, you've got to see this.

00:00:20.120 It's done by CNN, which is the one I trust the most because CNN polls Democrats.

00:00:24.960 Yeah, they want that number to be as high as possible.

00:00:27.240 That's exactly.

00:00:27.940 So Fox did it.

00:00:28.980 I would be like, yeah, I did it.

00:00:31.080 Yeah, Fox is like, turns out everyone fucking hates him.

00:00:32.420 Rob, do you have the video where the guy, Hinton, what's his name?

00:00:35.580 Hinton?

00:00:36.020 Harry, yes.

00:00:36.780 Harry, he does a very good job.

00:00:38.860 We have that clip.

00:00:40.060 But when you watch this, you ask yourself, okay, why is that idea not as popular as it used to be?

00:00:47.540 What happened all of a sudden, right?

00:00:49.900 The numbers are staggering on how much it's dropped.

00:00:54.740 What's that now?

00:00:55.540 Like what, 30, 35%?

00:00:57.620 No.

00:00:58.340 Less than that.

00:00:58.800 You've got to see this.

00:00:59.860 Rob, did you find it?

00:01:01.120 I'm looking for the video now.

00:01:02.640 I did find the article that you...

00:01:04.480 No, it's a video.

00:01:05.400 What's the guy's name?

00:01:06.460 Harry Hinton?

00:01:07.680 Hinton?

00:01:08.380 Yeah.

00:01:09.260 Oh.

00:01:10.500 Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh.

00:01:12.140 Okay.

00:01:12.520 So if you go on X, just type in Hinton Democratic Rating.

00:01:17.460 There you go.

00:01:17.860 Is that the most recent one?

00:01:19.060 This is from February.

00:01:20.560 There is another one that he did that's more recent.

00:01:24.180 Um.

00:01:24.820 November, March.

00:01:26.520 Yeah, but it's...

00:01:27.160 March 12th.

00:01:27.880 Okay.

00:01:28.300 Go with that one.

00:01:29.620 Watch this.

00:01:30.620 No, that's old.

00:01:31.860 Hold on.

00:01:32.220 Sorry.

00:01:33.100 While he finds it, I just want to say, I think that the trans women in sports thing

00:01:37.420 is like a classic divide and conquer, overblown, culture war, distraction, divide the public

00:01:43.020 thing.

00:01:43.700 Because like, realistically, they know that what they're doing now by creating that issue

00:01:47.940 is that it's taking precedence over things that are far more important that affect millions

00:01:52.460 and millions of people.

00:01:53.840 And they know that there's going to be a push on the progressive side to vehemently

00:01:56.760 defend that, you know, because that's what they do.

00:01:58.800 And there's going to be a conservative push to make that the main issue.

00:02:02.000 And so it's creating this like matrix.

00:02:03.300 It's almost like filibustering public conversation.

00:02:05.800 But also, let's say you're right.

00:02:08.560 And let's give credence to 20% of the argument of that being a part of it.

00:02:12.700 Let's put that there that I think there's a part of it that the opposing side's like,

00:02:16.700 hey, show this clip.

00:02:18.020 Look at what this happened.

00:02:19.040 So I get that.

00:02:19.560 I get a little bit of that, you know, that's happening where they're shown.

00:02:23.500 Okay.

00:02:23.920 Like, hey, look at what's going on with, you know, the economy, stock market drop.

00:02:28.320 New job reports came up.

00:02:29.780 It's higher than expected.

00:02:30.880 No, no, don't show this report, CNN.

00:02:33.940 Show what's going on with the stock market.

00:02:35.440 You're in tariffs, right?

00:02:36.220 I get that part.

00:02:37.260 However, maybe some of it is also the bad policies cost a lot of people to leave the Democratic Party.

00:02:45.080 Yeah.

00:02:45.480 More than ever before.

00:02:46.380 Rob, if you want to play this clip, watch this one here.

00:02:48.420 This is how long ago, Rob?

00:02:49.680 This is March, March 17th.

00:02:53.860 March 17th.

00:02:54.880 There's an updated one, but let's just watch it.

00:02:56.540 Close enough.

00:02:56.840 Close enough.

00:02:57.280 Yeah.

00:02:57.400 All I have to say, Democrats, call your office.

00:03:01.700 You know, we're March Madness times.

00:03:03.520 Terrible, terrible, terrible.

00:03:04.940 To quote the great Charles Barkley, view Democratic Party favorably.

00:03:09.820 CNN, SRS.

00:03:11.060 Look at this.

00:03:11.560 29 percent.

00:03:12.660 NBC News.

00:03:13.360 You want to go lower than that?

00:03:14.380 How about 27 percent?

00:03:16.060 Both are record lows.

00:03:18.000 The low is going back to 1992 in CNN polling.

00:03:21.200 The low is going back on record to 1990 in NBC News polling.

00:03:25.320 Yeah, probably because he can't match the guy's energy on the right.

00:03:30.700 Guy's going full, like, sports announcer mode.

00:03:33.320 At this point, all I can say is I'm a big fan of the oldies, so I'm going to quote Trump.

00:03:36.040 He's talking like Trump.

00:03:37.180 How low can you go?

00:03:39.140 Nice.

00:03:39.600 Well done.

00:03:40.000 Nice.

00:03:40.260 What about congressional Democrats?

00:03:41.640 Nice.

00:03:42.300 Yeah, what about congressional Democrats?

00:03:43.900 Why does he look so uncomfortable?

00:03:45.160 You think these numbers are low.

00:03:46.320 How about this one?

00:03:47.320 Holy shit.

00:03:48.260 Voters' views of the Democrats in Congress among all voters disapproved 68 percent.

00:03:54.300 And look at the approved number.

00:03:55.940 Just 21 percent.

00:03:57.820 Even lower than the Democrats.

00:03:58.680 I want to hire this guy.

00:03:59.780 Look at Bernie Sanders' Trump crossover.

00:04:02.280 He looks like the dad for modern family.

00:04:04.840 So, if you're positive, watch this one.

00:04:07.160 Watch this Dems on Dems.

00:04:08.220 Go.

00:04:09.340 Keep playing.

00:04:09.720 Democratic voters feel.

00:04:11.040 Get this.

00:04:11.840 The plurality of Democratic voters disapprove of Democrats in Congress at 49 percent.

00:04:16.840 And just 40 percent approved.

00:04:19.840 So, data is data, right?

00:04:22.080 Data is data.

00:04:23.320 So, when you look at that, this is not good.

00:04:25.360 So, then the question becomes, how did you guys get here?

00:04:27.980 What ideas were bad ideas?

00:04:29.680 You said something very interesting.

00:04:31.480 And you're like, you're for gay marriage. 0.71

00:04:34.280 Cool.

00:04:34.920 And then you said you're for higher taxes for the guys that are making more money.

00:04:39.860 Not, okay, just to clarify, I'm talking about like the genuine like billionaires.

00:04:43.820 Like, for example, California, the tax system is ridiculous.

00:04:46.960 Yep.

00:04:47.240 Like, I got, they took, I think, 45 percent of my income in total when you add up state

00:04:52.360 and federal taxes last year.

00:04:54.220 And I would have used that money to hire more people.

00:04:56.400 So, the logic is like we're going to take this money and distribute it to those who need

00:04:59.100 it.

00:04:59.260 But I actually would have used that money to hire like five more of my friends and pumped

00:05:02.320 it back into the economy.

00:05:03.580 I don't believe that entrepreneurs who are like around that like million, two million to

00:05:07.840 10 million level should even be taxed.

00:05:09.320 But I'm talking about when people are hoarding such absurd amounts of wealth, multi-billion

00:05:13.620 dollars.

00:05:14.340 I just think that it should, to a certain extent, be distributed.

00:05:16.960 Not necessarily in the way of like the government seizes all of their assets and gives it to

00:05:20.680 the poorest people.

00:05:21.380 But there has to be a way to bridge the extreme divide in income inequality in the country.

00:05:25.400 Okay.

00:05:25.560 So, check this out.

00:05:26.280 You just answered a very important question that took me a while to figure out.

00:05:29.500 When I was making $30,000, $40,000, $50,000, I'm like, dude, these rich people are greedy.

00:05:33.480 You know, they suck.

00:05:34.940 They should pay more taxes.

00:05:36.080 It's not fair.

00:05:37.220 Then when I started working my ass off and I built a business and the money came in,

00:05:40.920 I'm like, dude, if I had the money, I would hire five more people right now.

00:05:43.560 If I had that money, I would hire 10 more people right now.

00:05:45.660 Right?

00:05:45.860 You're thinking about it for a moment.

00:05:46.800 And you literally would.

00:05:48.080 And if you don't, you go buy a car, you're creating jobs.

00:05:50.960 If you don't, you put in a bank, the bank's going to lend it to somebody.

00:05:53.720 If you don't, you put in a mutual fund that company is working, someone's getting paid.

00:05:57.260 No matter where the money floats, it's creating jobs.

00:05:59.500 So the question on raising of the taxes, do you think you're more capable of doing good

00:06:06.760 with your money or the government can?

00:06:09.140 That's a really, really good question in terms of personal financial liberty.

00:06:13.080 I mean, as far as that question goes, obviously you would be better at spending your own money

00:06:17.080 than the government if you're managing a business.

00:06:18.780 But the fact is that once you get past a certain threshold of wealth, a lot of people are just

00:06:22.540 hoarding it and not pumping it back into the economy.

00:06:24.660 Like back in the day with Reagan when he installed supply side economics, the idea was,

00:06:29.160 oh my God, it's going to stimulate the economy so much if we give no taxes to billionaires

00:06:34.060 who run corporations.

00:06:35.420 But what happened is they ended up just kind of hoarding the money, buying more estates,

00:06:38.540 jets, vacations, living a lavish lifestyle because there's a human tendency to just want

00:06:42.520 to be as much of a baller as possible when you have a billion dollars.

00:06:44.980 It's just how people are.

00:06:45.780 Everybody wants to flex, get the nicest car, get a helicopter, do things that you can't

00:06:49.320 do, things that you've dreamed of when you're playing like Grand Theft Auto as a child.

00:06:52.380 So, but go there, go there with that.

00:06:54.280 Let's say you're the greedy billionaire, okay?

00:06:57.020 What's a greedy billionaire by?

00:06:59.160 Oh, damn.

00:06:59.960 You're asking me like, what would I buy if I was a greedy billionaire?

00:07:01.800 What network do you want to do?

00:07:02.780 You want to do a hundred million, you want to do a billion, or you want to stick to billionaires?

00:07:06.340 Yeah, let's stick to people who are making, you know, multi-billion dollars every year.

00:07:10.820 How about let's say billionaires and up?

00:07:12.300 Okay.

00:07:12.520 What does a rich billionaire buy?

00:07:13.820 What things do they buy?

00:07:14.900 Well, first thing that comes to mind for me is a pool, like an infinity pool that bleeds

00:07:20.060 directly into the Pacific Ocean.

00:07:21.700 Beautiful.

00:07:22.020 A fleet of jet skis for all of my friends, so we can kind of travel that way.

00:07:26.440 I love it.

00:07:27.020 Keep going, bro.

00:07:28.000 Corporate real estate on the water, so we can jet ski from the house to work.

00:07:33.880 I love it.

00:07:34.820 This is like Larry Ellison.

00:07:36.220 You ever seen Larry Ellison's headquarters?

00:07:37.740 No, I haven't.

00:07:38.040 So this guy's from Oracle.

00:07:39.460 This is the kind of shit that you're talking about.

00:07:41.600 Type in Larry Ellison's headquarters, parks his yacht.

00:07:45.200 Parks his yacht.

00:07:46.500 Something like that.

00:07:47.700 And then go to images, if you could.

00:07:50.160 So this guy builds his headquarters.

00:07:52.920 Oracle.

00:07:55.540 Put in Oracle Ellison's headquarters.

00:08:02.260 Is ship?

00:08:03.600 Maybe type in ship.

00:08:05.360 Type in if that comes.

00:08:06.960 Maybe go to Oracle's headquarters.

00:08:09.640 Okay?

00:08:09.940 Just take out the yacht. 0.84

00:08:14.240 This guy built his headquarters.

00:08:16.000 I don't know which one this is.

00:08:17.620 He builds a place to put his yacht.

00:08:19.440 I'll find it.

00:08:19.940 I'll text it to you here in a minute.

00:08:21.160 He literally parks his boat in front of the property that he has.

00:08:24.520 Whether it's Intel or Oracle, it's one of the two.

00:08:27.460 But okay.

00:08:29.100 So far we got pool, infinity pool on the water.

00:08:31.500 At the Pacific Ocean.

00:08:34.460 You got jet skis.

00:08:35.440 And then you have a corporate real estate on the water to jet ski from office to the house.

00:08:39.380 Yeah.

00:08:39.640 Personal trainer.

00:08:40.740 Private chef.

00:08:41.760 Personal trainer.

00:08:42.780 Nutritionist.

00:08:43.240 Private chef.

00:08:44.580 Dermatologist to live on scene to help me with my skin problems.

00:08:47.160 Dermatologists love it.

00:08:48.000 We need these dermatologists. 1.00

00:08:49.200 Who else?

00:08:50.100 I can't even think about it.

00:08:51.160 I just know that once you pass a certain amount of money, it becomes a competition as to who can get the most flashy thing.

00:08:54.920 But give me more, bro.

00:08:55.860 Go greedy.

00:08:56.540 What else is this billionaire going to buy?

00:08:58.260 I want more.

00:08:58.900 Get creative.

00:08:59.620 Okay.

00:08:59.800 Am I a tech billionaire or am I like a Saudi royal family member?

00:09:03.560 Give me both of them.

00:09:04.780 Okay.

00:09:05.440 I can't even think of anything else.

00:09:07.240 Okay.

00:09:07.920 Let's just say private jet.

00:09:09.880 Is that fair?

00:09:10.560 Yeah.

00:09:10.840 You for sure have a private jet.

00:09:11.960 Let's just say yacht.

00:09:13.240 Do you have a vacation home?

00:09:14.740 Yeah.

00:09:15.120 In Santa Fe.

00:09:15.820 In Santa Fe.

00:09:16.560 No, that's what Jeffrey Epstein had.

00:09:17.780 I got to pick somewhere else.

00:09:18.780 I got to pick that.

00:09:19.480 I scratched that.

00:09:20.180 I scratched that.

00:09:20.620 That's tough.

00:09:20.940 I have a vacation home.

00:09:21.820 Gene Hackman like.

00:09:23.060 On the west coast of Jamaica, Westmoreland Parish.

00:09:25.720 Holy shit.

00:09:26.500 Good taste.

00:09:27.060 Yeah.

00:09:27.300 What else?

00:09:27.980 What else do you do to hoard the money?

00:09:29.420 Where do you hoard your money?

00:09:30.640 You can just sit on it.

00:09:31.960 What do you sit on?

00:09:33.240 Well, what a lot of billionaires do is they use their money to kind of like use the legal

00:09:37.080 system, civil court in particular, to bully people who talk badly about them.

00:09:41.800 Yeah, but that's like.

00:09:43.240 It's happening to me right now.

00:09:44.520 Yeah, I get that part.

00:09:45.720 But I'm saying, what do they buy?

00:09:47.040 But let's even say that.

00:09:47.940 So that means they hire a PR firm and lawyers, right?

00:09:50.500 So they hire PR firms and lawyers.

00:09:53.120 Okay.

00:09:53.400 Do they buy expensive watches?

00:09:55.460 Yeah, I think so.

00:09:56.460 I mean, I personally wouldn't buy a watch.

00:09:58.780 But they probably do it.

00:09:59.760 Yeah.

00:10:00.080 Crazy.

00:10:00.460 I don't know why they do this kind of stuff.

00:10:02.120 What else?

00:10:02.640 What else do these guys buy?

00:10:03.420 I feel like I'm being set up right now.

00:10:05.580 Where does this end?

00:10:07.240 This is where I'm going with this.

00:10:08.260 If there's something that I don't know about billionaires, I want you to tell me.

00:10:11.440 I'll tell you what it is.

00:10:12.580 Here's how I process it.

00:10:15.020 So if they have an infinity pool, does it have to be maintained?

00:10:19.440 Yeah, but okay.

00:10:20.160 I see what you're saying.

00:10:20.920 There is pool staff that needs to make sure the water goes.

00:10:23.260 There's not too much chlorine going into the ocean.

00:10:25.980 It would have to be maintained, though.

00:10:26.920 Somebody has to take care of it on a weekly basis to build an infinity pool.

00:10:30.300 Rob, how much put average price of building an infinity pool in Malibu?

00:10:35.320 Okay.

00:10:35.620 Let's just average price of infinity pool building in Malibu, California.

00:10:40.520 Yeah.

00:10:41.200 California.

00:10:42.300 Let's just say what it says.

00:10:43.220 Price point.

00:10:43.880 250, 500, 200.

00:10:45.640 I don't know what the number is going to be.

00:10:46.800 Give us a price point on infinity pool estimate of cost 65 to 150,000.

00:10:52.340 That's actually a lot less expensive than I thought it would be.

00:10:54.480 And watch what it says.

00:10:55.400 In luxury infinity pool, 150 can exceed to $500,000.

00:10:59.000 That's a lot of jobs that people are going to get paid.

00:11:01.320 Okay.

00:11:01.860 If you buy jet skis, let's say it's $25,000 for a good jet ski.

00:11:05.320 That's a lot.

00:11:05.980 That's a lot.

00:11:06.380 But you're right.

00:11:06.700 For a good jet ski.

00:11:07.000 You're creating a job.

00:11:07.980 And you need to get six to eight so that you and your core employees can commute to work

00:11:11.340 together like some kind of fleet.

00:11:12.480 That's right.

00:11:12.920 We got to do it the right way.

00:11:13.840 You can't screw on with this one here.

00:11:15.060 So headquarters, corporate headquarters on the water, construction workers, plumbers,

00:11:19.740 electrician, it's a lot of jobs being created, right?

00:11:22.660 If you have a private personal trainer, that's a job you're creating.

00:11:26.160 If you have a chef, that's a job you're creating.

00:11:28.100 Okay.

00:11:28.420 I get the point you're trying to make.

00:11:30.320 People should be able to get nice things for themselves if they work super hard.

00:11:33.340 But that's not the kind of guy who's like, if you work hard, you have to, you should

00:11:36.100 give all your money to people who are, you know, are on the lower income.

00:11:38.740 I'm just saying that like the specific tax rate should be a little bit higher, not ridiculously

00:11:43.280 higher, but higher enough to where they can have substantial social welfare programs.

00:11:46.480 My biggest challenge with that is, is even the greediest of the greediest who goes and

00:11:52.000 is like flaunting a big ass platinum gold chain that they're putting around their neck

00:11:57.600 that they bought for whatever that somebody took three months to build.

00:12:00.780 No matter what it is, the money is flowing.

00:12:02.340 Even if they put the money in the bank and they're sitting on it, the bank is lending

00:12:06.160 it back to somebody.

00:12:07.220 So money's always working.

00:12:08.680 Chase is not going to let money stay in the bank.

00:12:10.560 Yeah.

00:12:10.920 The moment you put money in Chase, guess what Chase is doing?

00:12:13.580 Chase is lending it to somebody ASAP.

00:12:15.060 They don't want the money to stay in the bank.

00:12:16.100 They're not making money like that.

00:12:17.340 So no matter what you do, the basis of this question for me goes, who's going to do better

00:12:23.100 with the money?

00:12:24.200 Giving it to the government because you said what?

00:12:26.200 Right after when I said taxes, you said in California, what did you say?

00:12:30.280 Let me go back to it.

00:12:31.640 You said in California, you know, the taxes that you're paying 45 percent, but then at

00:12:36.020 the same time, taxes are not being used effectively.

00:12:39.280 Right.

00:12:39.820 How much of that are we going through right now?

00:12:41.860 Well, I mean, on the inverse, what do you think will solve the problem of the extreme

00:12:46.920 poverty and wealth inequality in the country?

00:12:48.660 Well, let's see.

00:12:49.560 California's been trying to do it. 1.00

00:12:51.240 Well, the thing is they try.

00:12:52.060 That's the thing is everyone sees Gavin Newsom as like an enabler for all these destructive

00:12:55.500 democratic policies, but he still makes concessions to conservatives who are like bullying

00:12:59.240 him into not carrying it out.

00:13:00.840 For example, let's take the Tenderloin in San Francisco, which is the biggest, is still

00:13:04.360 the biggest open air drug zone in the city.

00:13:06.220 Been that way for decades.

00:13:07.980 He, you know, obviously during the Biden administration and when Newsom was in control, he still is.

00:13:13.140 It was a crazy scene out there.

00:13:14.980 Those people smoking fentanyl on the streets, people defecating and sleeping in the streets.

00:13:18.900 To San Francisco.

00:13:19.660 Yeah.

00:13:19.960 In this particular area.

00:13:21.220 Is there a clip you want him to show?

00:13:22.960 No, I think we can just overlay it or something.

00:13:24.760 But I mean, in general, Governor Newsom was being kind of like shit on for letting that

00:13:29.560 happen.

00:13:30.240 But the reality is, and people on the ground know this, there was supposed to be a safe

00:13:33.700 injection site that was two blocks long, two blocks wide.

00:13:37.280 That was supposed to be maintained by the state and the city.

00:13:39.860 So it made it so people wouldn't be able to use heroin, fentanyl and meth on the streets.

00:13:43.660 They would have to go to a controlled environment where the public and children and people who

00:13:47.080 were living in that community wouldn't have to interact with them and they could have the

00:13:50.360 access to the services they need.

00:13:52.200 At the last minute, Governor Newsom didn't build it because he was too scared of being

00:13:56.720 getting another media smear campaign and being made to seem like someone who lets people

00:14:00.240 do drugs in the open.

00:14:01.700 But he still does drugs in the open.

00:14:03.360 So with the Democratic establishment in California, there's a lot of hypocrisy and there's a lot

00:14:07.320 of we don't know where the money is going.

00:14:08.900 There's not much transparency as far as what's happening with all these taxes that are being

00:14:12.060 taken away from people who worked hard to make that money.

00:14:14.420 We do know that a trillion dollars of wealth have left California in the past four years.

00:14:18.460 We do know that cities like San Francisco and L.A. that are still generating a ton of

00:14:22.760 money, much of that money isn't even being given, pumped back into the city because so

00:14:26.900 many workers have gone remote.

00:14:28.240 There's a lot of people working in California that decide not to live there because they

00:14:31.480 can do their work for tech companies remotely elsewhere in a more affordable state like

00:14:35.380 Montana.

00:14:36.480 So I think that when you look at progressive policies and you look at poverty and it's not

00:14:41.740 changing and then you look at the tax rate going up and down, it can be easy to say,

00:14:45.900 you know what, nothing's ever going to change.

00:14:47.140 And that's why there's so much like a sense of apathy and nihilism when it comes to the

00:14:50.700 billionaire thing.

00:14:51.540 That's why people are saying, oh, you know, billionaires are the worst, kill them all like

00:14:54.260 on the Internet because they've seen nothing change and they're seeing, OK, the cost of

00:14:58.460 living is high.

00:14:59.160 There's homeless people everywhere.

00:15:00.400 There's so much poverty.

00:15:01.540 Yet there's this class of people who are unaffected by it.

00:15:04.200 So the question is, then, if we don't raise the taxes, what can be done to change that

00:15:08.520 situation on the ground?

00:15:10.080 The taxes?

00:15:10.860 No, I mean the situation with inequality and poverty.

00:15:12.780 Yeah, but that's that's not how it works, though, because to me, here's how it works.

00:15:15.920 OK, let's just say you got three sons and they're all 25 years old.

00:15:20.180 OK, and you're 60 years old at this time.

00:15:23.140 Could you be?

00:15:23.840 Yeah, 60.

00:15:24.640 Yeah, 25, 60.

00:15:25.880 Let's just say you're 65 years old.

00:15:27.220 You got three sons, 25, 26, 27.

00:15:30.240 They're all out of college.

00:15:31.960 You give each of them $100,000.

00:15:34.180 First one to give $100,000, he goes to Singapore.

00:15:37.600 He parties, he comes back, has a lot of stories, says, dad, I tried an opportunity.

00:15:41.200 I met with this businessman in Singapore.

00:15:42.720 Didn't work out.

00:15:43.320 I need another quarter million dollars.

00:15:44.960 I'm up to something big.

00:15:46.400 Second son comes up.

00:15:47.620 You give him $100,000.

00:15:48.940 He takes $100,000, go buys a small condo, gets a nice little job, makes $120,000 a year,

00:15:55.220 doesn't need any money from you anymore.

00:15:57.020 He's doing OK.

00:15:57.900 He's happy.

00:15:58.320 He's got a girlfriend.

00:15:59.060 They're pretty serious.

00:16:00.400 Third one, he gives $100,000, takes $100,000, starts a little real estate shop, turns into

00:16:05.300 $3.2 million.

00:16:06.560 OK, two years later.

00:16:08.500 Now they're all two years older.

00:16:10.420 The first son, you give $100,000, went to Singapore, comes back, says he wants a quarter.

00:16:14.240 The second one's a quarter.

00:16:15.460 The third one wants a quarter.

00:16:17.220 Which of those three are you more comfortable giving more money to, knowing you're going

00:16:22.220 to get a rate of return on your money?

00:16:23.800 The first, the second, or the third?

00:16:25.000 Probably the first, right?

00:16:26.000 The first?

00:16:26.720 Yeah.

00:16:26.960 The guy that went to Singapore?

00:16:27.980 Oh, no, not that guy.

00:16:28.840 My bad.

00:16:29.140 I kind of got lost in the metaphor here because I was just thinking about Singapore.

00:16:30.940 The first guy is Singapore.

00:16:31.780 The second guy is a stable guy, good citizen, gets a job.

00:16:34.420 Number two.

00:16:34.720 Or the third one that starts a business and makes the money grow for you?

00:16:38.420 I mean, probably the three because it would be a bigger investment.

00:16:41.060 But I mean, aside from a business standpoint, like if we obviously, you recognize that there's

00:16:44.660 a big problem with homelessness, poverty, unaffordability.

00:16:47.160 Well, why do you think that is, though?

00:16:48.760 What do you think?

00:16:49.500 I'm asking you.

00:16:50.260 You're in the streets.

00:16:50.920 Why do you think that is?

00:16:51.720 I mean, I would just assume that because the social safety net is so small here and there's

00:16:55.420 such little being provided for people in terms of mental health services, the Broken

00:16:59.160 Veterans Administration, so many different things, unaffordability.

00:17:02.300 Like there's just not enough resources to set up people who are to help people who are

00:17:05.260 at rock bottom here.

00:17:06.220 You think we haven't given enough money?

00:17:08.460 So to me, when you ask the question, if we don't raise the taxes, then how are we going

00:17:12.400 to fix this?

00:17:13.440 To me, the question becomes the last 30 times we agreed to give you more money, you wasted

00:17:19.180 it.

00:17:19.360 Why should we trust you to give you more money?

00:17:21.200 Because if I give money to Amazon, if I give money in a company like NVIDIA, if I give

00:17:27.100 money to Tesla, if I give money to Ford or Disney and I buy the stock and I'm like a

00:17:31.320 believer, here's what's going to be happening.

00:17:33.240 I kind of can track publicly.

00:17:35.240 There's accountability.

00:17:36.060 There's accounting.

00:17:36.800 There's quarterly earning.

00:17:37.700 There's calls to get on.

00:17:38.880 If I give more money to the government, what is the quarterly earnings?

00:17:42.960 Where's the accountability?

00:17:43.880 No, I totally agree with you.

00:17:44.700 Where's the accounting?

00:17:45.180 I agree with you.

00:17:45.680 Why am I giving money to that?

00:17:46.460 There's no way logically one would give money to a company or a business that I don't get

00:17:51.420 to see what you did with my money.

00:17:52.580 There's no tracking to it.

00:17:53.480 I agree.

00:17:54.000 I do think that we can both agree that throwing money at things doesn't always fix the problem.

00:17:59.340 But you've been around for longer than me.

00:18:00.840 If it's not that, if it's not funding programs to provide for people who are down and out,

00:18:04.580 what do we do?

00:18:05.780 Nowadays, more than ever, the brand you wear reflects and represents who you are.

00:18:10.540 So for us, if you wear a future looks bright hat or a value taming gear, you're telling the

00:18:16.640 world, I'm optimistic.

00:18:18.480 I'm excited about what's going to be happening.

00:18:20.080 But you're a free thinker.

00:18:21.000 You question things.

00:18:21.760 You like debate.

00:18:22.300 And by the way, last year, 120,000 people got a piece of future looks bright gear with

00:18:29.400 value taming.

00:18:30.020 We have so many new things.

00:18:31.920 The cufflinks are here.

00:18:33.380 New future looks bright.

00:18:34.560 This is my favorite, the green one.
